Opinion and Market Power in Big Tech

Description

Large technology corporations are now the gatekeepers to the world of information: With their AI tools, we create content or seek substitutes for personal relationships. The algorithms of their social media platforms display content that keeps us online as long as possible. And on their search engines, they no longer just provide links but become content editors through AI summaries. This opinion power, combined with market dominance and the ideologically tinted political influence of these corporations and their CEOs, has consequences – for our society and democracy.
